Alessi — Plissé MDL09 W | Michele De Lucchi designer blender

There is something almost sartorial about Michele De Lucchi's Plissé: the white thermoplastic resin body is finished with a pleated texture reminiscent of haute couture fabrics, the crisp folds of a starched shirt, or the edge of a formal gown. It is a blender that does not ask to be hidden in a drawer - on the contrary, it wants to sit on the countertop, where its tall, harmonious silhouette engages with the architecture of the contemporary kitchen. The graduated transparent PCTG jug completes the composition with the visual lightness that only well-chosen materials can provide. Michele De Lucchi - one of the most influential Milanese architects and designers of his generation, a leading figure in the Memphis movement in the 1980s and later the creative director of major international studios - brings his most recognizable signature to the Plissé: the ability to transform functional form into an emotional language. In his hands, a 700-watt appliance becomes an aesthetic statement. The design belongs to the great Alessi collection, a living manifesto of the idea that the quality of everyday life should never give way to banality. We chose it for Stilmobili because it embodies our vision exactly: that the kitchen should be a space of material culture, not merely function. The Plissé is ideal for those who furnish with consistency, who accept no compromises between aesthetics and performance, and who seek in every household object a formal as well as practical rationale. It pairs perfectly with kitchens characterized by contemporary materials, yet it also holds its own in more classic settings thanks to its timeless whiteness.
